About Maria
Maria Elizabeth Sho is a certified intimacy, love, and relationship coach who works with individuals and couples ready to break painful patterns and build something genuinely fulfilling. Having navigated sexual trauma and difficult relationships herself, she brings lived understanding alongside professional training — making her especially skilled at helping clients who feel like they've tried everything.
She focuses on the day-to-day reality of relationships: the trust that's eroded, the arguments that go nowhere, the intimacy that's faded. Her approach draws on evidence-based methods delivered with a warm, attentive presence — clients often describe her as a gentle listener who asks exactly the right questions.
Maria Elizabeth works virtually with clients across the US, UK, New Zealand, and beyond. Her goal is simple: help people move from surviving their relationships to genuinely thriving in them.
